Who killed Harry Up?

Mytil and friends and house

   It would appear that whoever pumped six bullets into the veteran Bo-Gars street gang member escaped unseen.
   Mytil - who used the nickname Harry Up - had a long rap sheet, but none of his crimes, which included selling drugs and using counterfeit money, matched the splashy home invasion he helped orchestrate on the south shore, almost 10 years ago, on May 3, 2003.
    The caper was simple and brutal.
   Someone named Christina Greer rang the doorbell at the home of defence lawyer Alain Dubois, saying that she had forgotten a jacket at his place.

   Dubois knew her, so he opened the door but others forced their way in, hit Dubois in the face with a gun and forced him to open his safe and give them his cash .


    The crime was planned by a 17-year-old boy, who got his sister to recruit Mytil, who in turn recruited Tsionas, who then got Joseph Rochenelle and another man to help.

   Mytil waited in the car with a driver while all of this went on, communicating with those inside via walkie-talkie.
The gang went to part and divide up the cash but Mytil, who had several upcoming court appearances to deal with other previous violations, does not appear to have attended.
    Dubois was traumatized by the incident and missed several months of work and had to visit with a psychologist about 10 times. He said he missed some of the sentimental items that were taken.
   After 16 months inside the RdP facility while awaiting trial, Mytil plead he plead guilty to charges relating to his involved and was given four years in prison.
   Mytil also had broken the law with a breaking and entry, parole violations, weapons, counterfeit money.
